Help with mailing address, billing address

I was very pleased with the fast quick service. He let me know that I could get it on sale, that was fantastic and saved me a little money. He also help me with mailing it to a differentk address then the billing address. He was very pleasant and a joy to talk to. I loved to hear all the laughter in the background. It must be a great place to work! Thank you

Fast shipping and excellent customer care

Great experience! I purchased a metal detector and headphones from them. When I realized I had made a mistake with my order, I called and they fixed it right away. Friendly, helpful staff and excellent customer service. Highly recommended!

I deeply regret going to this store

I deeply regret going to this store. I urgently needed a coil for my metal detector. I placed an order, but they forced me to pick it up in another state. I canceled the order and placed a new one. I received the coil with a significant delay, and I had to return it. The store received the return 1.5 months ago, but I still haven't received a full refund. I don't recommend this store to anyone unless you want to lose your money. Now I'll have to contact my bank and file a complaint with the consumer protection agency.
